Summer storms with strong winds, heavy rain, and even lightning can pose a serious threat to trees. If those trees overhang your house, the damage can potentially be severe! After a storm, inspect your trees for limbs that have broken but not yet fallen and dead branches that will likely fall in the future–particularly those that overhang power lines or your home. If you notice anything worrisome, make arrangements with a tree service to have these branches removed before they can cause serious damage to your property. Then rest easy during the next thunderstorm and enjoy the rain without worrying about a tree coming through your roof.
